Regarding speculation surrounding Steve Austin making an appearance at WrestleMania XXX, word is that if he does appear, it won't be as an active wrestler.

Austin has talked privately about working with CM Punk in the past but Punk is currently scheduled to face Triple H at WrestleMania XXX. Word within WWE is that Austin has not been receptive to the idea of working a match this year, which given his age, may completely close the window on Austin ever wrestling again.
